common shareholders per share for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 would have been $0.94 and $0.93 respectively. FFO available to common shareholders payout ratio was 63.2 percent on a trailing 12-month basis, compared to 69.8 percent for 2003.
Joe Green, president and chief financial officer of the company stated, “We are seeing positive activity in all three of our growth strategies: improving operating results, acquisitions and underwriting hotel loans. On balance, we are optimistic about the industry outlook. We were active in both our acquisition and debt investment financing programs in the fourth quarter and continue to have very active pipelines in both areas.
Acquisition/Development/Disposition Activity
• | In December 2004, the company acquired the 135-room Courtyard by Marriott in Roanoke, VA. for approximately $12.1 million. |
|
• | In December 2004, the company purchased a six-story, historic residential building in Kansas City, MO. for approximately $3.1 million. The property will undergo extensive renovations and be converted to a 123-room Courtyard by Marriott with an estimated all-in cost of approximately $16.7 million, net of historic tax credits totaling $7.7 million. The renovations have begun and are expected to be completed during the second quarter of 2006. |
|
• | In 2004, the company’s joint venture with Charlesbank Capital Partners, LLC (“Charlesbank”) and Concord Hospitality Enterprises Company, acquired the 95-room Quality Suites hotel in West Des Moines, IA. This hotel is being converted to a Springhill Suites hotel, with an expected completion in the second quarter of 2005. Also during 2004, the company’s joint venture with Charlesbank and a partnership led by New |
7
| Castle Hotels, acquired the 160-room Ramada Plaza Hotel in Shelton, CT. This hotel was converted to, and re-opened as, a Courtyard by Marriott hotel in the first quarter of 2005. The company owns a 13.05% interest in each of these two joint ventures. In addition, the company’s Chapel Hill joint venture developed and opened a new 147-room Courtyard by Marriott hotel in Chapel Hill, N.C., in September of 2004. The company owns a 49% interest in the joint venture that owns this hotel. The remaining 51% interest in the joint venture is majority owned by Charles Winston and James Winston collectively, both of whom are directors of the company, with three unrelated minority investors. |
|
• | During 2004, the company sold two hotels for $10.6 million, net of closing costs. |
|
• | In January 2005, the company sold two Comfort Inns for $7.0 million, net of closing costs. These sales are part of the company’s ongoing efforts to recycle its capital into higher yielding investments. |
|
• | We currently have approximately $44 million available on our $125 million line of credit, the majority of which we intend to deploy for both our acquisition and debt investment financing programs. |
Debt Investment Financing Program
In December 2004, the company provided $6.0 million in a senior participating note to help finance the acquisition and conversion of the 347-room Radisson Resort on the island of Kauai, Hawaii to a condo hotel, and $6.0 million in mezzanine financing to help finance the acquisition of, and capital improvements for, the 157-room La Posada de Santa Fe Resort in
8
Santa Fe, N.M. During 2004, Winston provided a total of $25.9 million in five separate debt investments, including the two noted above.
“As the hotel economy accelerates, the need for capital to underwrite acquisitions and new development continues to expand,” Green noted. “Investors often seek the advantages offered by mezzanine loans to complete the funding to finance their plans. Our experience and background in hotel ownership, development and management gives us a strong platform to help evaluate these transactions.”
Winston’s debt investment financing program targets subordinated hotel loans between 60 percent and 85 percent of a project’s value, hotels with 100 to 425 rooms and single-asset loan amounts that normally range from $1 million to $15 million. The company also seeks to underwrite and acquire the junior mezzanine portion of loans that are originated in the marketplace under Collateralized Mortgage-Backed Securities (CMBS) programs.
Internal Growth/Fourth Quarter and Year-end Operating Statistics
The following “same store” operating statistics are for the 47 hotels that were open during both the years and quarters ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 (including 44 wholly-owned hotels and 3 joint-venture hotels). Operating margins improved to 38.2 percent in the 2004 fourth quarter, compared to 37.9 percent in the same period a year earlier. For the 12 months ended December 31, 2004, operating margins rose to 40.9 percent, compared to 40.6 percent for the previous year.
In the 2004 fourth quarter, revenue per available room (RevPAR) improved 6.4 percent, with a 1.3 percent increase in occupancy and a 5.0 percent improvement in average daily room rate (ADR), compared to the same period a year earlier. RevPAR improved 6.7 percent for the
9
year ended December 31, 2004, with a 3.9 percent increase in occupancy and a 2.7 percent improvement in ADR, compared to the full year 2003.
Based on information provided by Smith Travel Research, RevPAR yield for the company’s portfolio for the 12 months ended December 31, 2004 was approximately 111 percent, up from 109 percent in the same period a year earlier, indicating that the company’s portfolio achieved disproportionately greater RevPAR than its competition.
During the 2004 fourth quarter, the company declared a regular cash dividend of $0.15 per common share. The company also declared a cash dividend of $0.50 per share of Series B Preferred Stock. “We are comfortable with our current common stock dividend, but will continue to evaluate our policy on a quarter-to-quarter basis,” said Bob Winston, chairman and chief executive officer of the company.
Outlook and Guidance
For the 2005 first quarter, the company forecasts net income available to common shareholders per share of $0.05 to $0.07, compared to a net income available to common shareholders per share of $0.01 for the prior year’s first quarter. For the 2005 first quarter, the company expects RevPAR to improve 4 percent to 6 percent and FFO available to common shareholders per share of between $0.21 and $0.23, compared to FFO available to common shareholders per share of $0.16 for the 2004 first quarter. This guidance assumes no additional acquisitions or developments of hotels or placements of debt during the 2005 first quarter.
Winston Hotels’ fourth quarter and full-year 2004 investor conference call is scheduled for 10:30 a.m. ET today, February 17, 2005. The call also will be simulcast over the Internet via the company’s Web site,www.winstonhotels.com.

Notes About Forward-Looking Statements
In addition to historical information, this press release contains forward-looking statements. The reader can identify these statements by use of words like “may,” “will,” “expect,” “project,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “target,” “believe,” or “continue” or similar expressions, including without limitation its acquisition and disposition plans for hotel properties, its hotel lending plans, its dividend policy, and its estimated net income available to common shareholders, earnings per share, FFO, FFO available to common shareholders and RevPAR for the 2005 first quarter. These statements represent the company’s judgment and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual operating results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward looking statements including, but not limited to, changes in general economic conditions, lower occupancy rates, lower average daily rates, acquisition risks, development risks including risk of construction delay, cost overruns, occupancy and other governmental permits, zoning, the increase of development costs in connection with projects that are not pursued to completion, the risk of non-payment of mezzanine loans, or the failure to make additional hotel debt investments and investments in hotels. Other risks are discussed in the company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including but not limited to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.
Notes About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
11
This press release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined under Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules. As required by SEC rules, the company has provided reconciliation in this press release of each non-GAAP financial measure to its most directly comparable GAAP measure. We believe that these non-GAAP measures, when combined with the company’s primary GAAP presentations required by the SEC, help improve our equity holders’ ability to understand our operating performance and make it easier to compare the results of our company with other hotel REITs. A description of each is provided below.
FFO
The company reports FFO in accordance with the definition of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”). NAREIT defines FFO as net income (loss) (determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or “GAAP”), excluding gains (losses) from sales of property plus depreciation and amortization and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures (which are calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis). The company further subtracts preferred stock dividends from FFO to calculate FFO available to common shareholders. FFO available to common shareholders is a performance measure used by the company in its budgeting and forecasting models, it is discussed during Board meetings, is considered when making decisions regarding acquisitions, sales of properties, and other investments, and the company’s compensation committee determines executive incentive compensation in part based on this measure. Actual results are compared to budget and forecast on a monthly basis. The calculation of FFO and FFO available to common shareholders may vary from entity to entity, and as such the presentation of FFO and FFO available to common shareholders by the company may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other reporting companies. FFO and FFO available to common shareholders are not intended to represent cash flows for the period. FFO and FFO available to common shareholders have not been presented as an alternative to operating income, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
FFO is a supplemental industry-wide measure of REIT operating performance, the definition of which was first proposed by NAREIT in 1991 (and clarified in 1995, 1999 and 2002) in response to perceived drawbacks associated with net income under GAAP as applied to REITs. Since the introduction of the definition by NAREIT, the term has come to be widely used by REITs. Historical GAAP cost accounting for real estate assets implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, most industry investors have considered presentations of operating results for real estate companies that use historical GAAP cost accounting to be insufficient by themselves. Accordingly, the company believes FFO and FFO available to common shareholders (combined with the company’s primary GAAP presentations required by the SEC) help improve our investors’ ability to understand the company’s operating performance.
The company computes FFO available to common shareholders Payout Ratio by dividing common dividends per share paid over the last twelve months by trailing twelve-month FFO available to common shareholders per share for the same period.
12
RevPAR
RevPAR is an acronym for Revenue Per Available Room, which is determined by multiplying average daily rate by occupancy percentage for any given period. RevPAR does not include food and beverage or other ancillary revenues, such as parking, telephone, or other guest services generated by the property. Similar to the reporting periods for the company’s statement of operations, hotel operating statistics (i.e., RevPAR, average daily rate and average occupancy) are always reported on a quarter to date and/or year to date basis.
